Recently I celebrated my 20 year anniversary in festival producing. It's been an amazing ride so far, and I've learned some lessons the hard way. This week I'm sharing a few of those lessons with you, so you can learn from my mistakes. Briefly, those lessons are: 1. How long it actually takes to plan an event 2. How to keep your volunteers feeling valued 3. What to do when your temper rises 4. Two magical phrases to use when someone is criticizing you 5. How to plan for trouble I'd love to know what lessons you think I should have included. Email me or message me on social media and I'll include your suggestions in an upcoming episode. On to the next 20 years! Thank you to our Patreon supporters for keeping this podcast going.
